As the Stanley Cup playoffs have come down to the final four teams, another competition now sees four remaining players left in the running: the race for the cover of EA Sports’ NHL ’15. The New Jersey Devils’ Martin Brodeur won the cover spot last year, and it is now time for a new player to claim this much sought-after honor.

What started as a field of 60 players (two from each team) has been narrowed down to four individuals: Patrice Bergeron (Boston Bruins), Drew Doughty (LA Kings), T.J. Oshie (St. Louis Blues), and P.K. Subban (Montreal Canadiens). Hockey fans everywhere have been voting for who they think deserves to be the NHL ’15 cover boy the official NHL.com cover voting page as well as on Twitter (tweet #NHL15____, filling in the blank with Bergeron, Doughty, Oshie, or Subban to cast your vote). But now that we’re down to the final four players…let’s take a closer look at who’s still in contention, shall we?

There you have it, hockey fans: your final four NHL ’15 cover contenders! Each player’s respective team is getting involved in the campaigns as well, especially on Twitter; the Bruins, Kings, Blues, and Canadiens all have giveaways for people who vote for their players, and T.J. Oshie and P.K. Subban each have campaign videos up on YouTube. (Links to Oshie’s videos: 1234. The video for Subban is here). Voting for this round ends on Sunday, May 25th, and #NHL15 tweets on Thursdays count for double, so get your votes in now!

Who will it be? #NHL15Bergeron? #NHL15Doughty? #NHL15Oshie? #NHL15Subban?
